LOS ANGELES, CA -- 08/05/09 --
Foreign sales agents at American World
Pictures representing the independent horror film, "Blood Snow" (which is
known in the U.S. market as "Necrosis"), has signed foreign distribution
deals for the feature in several overseas markets including: Japan, Taiwan,
Russia, The Middle East, Czech Republic, and Turkey.
Despite the declining big-budget foreign purchases of U.S. made films,
sales of smaller independent films like "Blood Snow / Necrosis" proves
there is still a demand for content produced in the U.S.
The smaller production budget of "Necrosis," which stars James Kyson Lee
('Ando' on NBC's "Heroes"), George Stults ("7th Heaven") and Tiffany (80's
Pop Star), allowed for a much smaller "Minimum Guarantee" from the foreign
distributors than the larger studio-based films. "Necrosis" also stars
Penny Drake ("Zombie Strippers") Danielle De Luca ("Naked Fear"), Robert
Michael Ryan ("How I Met Your Mother") and has an extended cameo appearance
from horror icon Michael Berryman ("The Hills Have Eyes").
Produced on location in South Lake Tahoe, Big Bear Mountain, and Ventura,
California, by Unknown Productions Incorporated in 2008/2009, they rapidly
turned out the finished film in time for the 2009 Paranoia Film Festival in
March, held on the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California and then selling
foreign rights at the Cannes Film Market in May.
"Necrosis" (AKA "Blood Snow") is a Psychological Horror Film that follows a
group of friends at an isolated cabin in the Sierra Nevada Mountains who
become trapped by an epic snowstorm and are haunted by ghosts from the
Donner Party.
With a U.S. deal for "Necrosis" in the works, Unknown Productions is
developing several films for 2010/2011, including another horror film, a
thriller and a romantic comedy.
